C220 Classic W203
Problem with engine
Hello. I got an Mercedes-Benz C220 Classic w203 from 2001, and it started to smoke a lot and when the engine revs go up to like 3000-4000 RPMs it spills oil from the oil check dipstick. It also won't move (like you go in first gear and accelerate it and the car moves a little bit and the engine dies). The oil problem might be from overfilling the oil bay, because I went with the car to the mechanic and he overfilled it, but my question is why it won't move. Also, there is some smoke or vapour coming out from the engine bay, from the hole you have to put the dipstick in. The car also had some problems with the injectors but it still worked almost perfectly with that problem.
Thank you for your help!
